Background: Studies have shown that therapeutic games play a role in improving the symptoms of hyperactivity and attention deficit attention disorder. The research issue is whether it can help to reduce the symptoms by performing mental games. Aims: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of intellectual games on reduced symptoms of hyperactivity and attention deficit in primary school students in Kerman. Method: The present study is a semi-experimental interventional research and pre-test post-test design with control group. The statistical population consisted of all primary school children who referred to the counseling center and their number was155. The sample size was compared to two groups; each group was considered as 15. Sampling was done as available. Conner's Grading Scale (1969) was used to diagnose hyperactivity disorder and attention deficit. For data analysis, mean, standard deviation and covariance analysis were used. Results: The findings illustrated showed that there was a significant difference between experimental and control groups. Conclusions: This means that the group that participated in the therapeutic game had fewer symptoms of hyperactivity and attention deficit attention disorder.
